Team Nutting Dentistry Knoxville TN
Dr. Talia Nutting

Dr. Talia Nutting has provided exceptional dental care in Knoxville since 2009. She has studied extensively on implant restoration at the Zimmer Implant Institute and with Biomet’s Synergy Program. Dr. Nutting has received intensive training on Cerec CAD/CAM technology, which allows the office to offer crowns in one day. She is also a member of the prestigious Kois Center in Seattle, Washington.

Dr. Nutting dedicates herself to providing dental care with state-of-the-art technology that is beautiful and long lasting. She prides herself on providing the same care for her patients as she would provide to her own family. Dr. Nutting feels she owes it to her patients to never stop learning, which is why she routinely completes at least double the state requirements for continuing education each year. Dr. Nutting most cherishes the relationships she has with her patients. Her favorite part of every day is helping people get the care they need while making sure that personal touches aren’t lost in today’s fast paced world.

Dr. Nutting grew up just down the road in Kingston, Tennessee. She went on to study at the University of Tennessee, earning high honors at the College of Dentistry. Dr. Nutting and her family are residents of West Knoxville. Her husband Marshall works in the University of Tennessee athletic department (Go Vols!). When not at the office, you can find her lending support to her son Grant’s school and sports activities and making a point to hear great live music. She loves hot tea, coffee and the Rolling Stones.

Charlie

Charlie is the official office mascot. He has been working (if by working you mean mostly napping) at the office for over a year. Charlie Watts Nutting is named after a famous musician – bonus points if you know who! If he’s not in the break room waiting for someone to drop a cracker, he’s asleep in Dr. Nutting’s personal office. Feel free to ask about Charlie and say hi when you are here for your appointments!
